Daniel William Lipinski (born July 15, 1966) was the U.S. Representative for Illinois's 3rd congressional district, from 2005 to 2021. He is a member of the Democratic Party.

The district includes much of the southwest side of Chicago, along with several nearby suburbs. Lipinski is a member of the Blue Dog Coalition and is known as one of the more conservative Congressional Democrats.

He is the son of former congressman Bill Lipinski.[1]

He was defeated in the Democratic primary in 2020 for re-election by progressive, pro-choice challenger Marie Newman.[2]
